    Okay, a couple of things:

    Do this from a text console, not a GUI.
    And preferably without ever starting klogd/syslogd during init.

    That way you've a much better chance of seeing some kernel diagnostic
    messages when it locks up.

    Can you boot with "nomsi" kernel parameter?
    And I guess we'll need to see the entire kernel .config as well.

    This is a tricky one. The driver behaves fine for me
    here with a 7042 rev.2 on PCIe in my x86-32 box.

    Cheers
